Re idiopathic hypersomnia: have you ruled out upper airway resistance syndrome (UARS)? Most standard sleep studies will miss it. It's often misdiagnosed as idiopathic hypersomnia or chronic fatigue syndrome.

FWIW, I have both IH and sleep apnea.

The CPAP helped a great amount, but even with CPAP and meds (Solriamfetol for fatigue/sleep inertia, Daridorexant for insomnia) I'm not very energized.

I'll look into it, although my issues seem to have started after a brain injury back when I was 12, so it's doubtful.
